combination to overturn.
PORTABLE CART WARNING
S3126A
Ventilation - The unit should be situated with adequate
space around it so that proper heat ventilation is assured.
Allow 10 cm clearance from the rear and the top of the unit,
and 5 cm from the each side.
Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom
are provided for ventilation, and to ensure reliable operation
of the unit and to protect it from overheating, these openings
must not be blocked or covered. The openings should
never be blocked by placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug or

cause fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on
the unit.
Electric Power
Power Sources - This unit should be operated only from
the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If
you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home,
consult your appliance dealer or local power company. To
operate unit on battery power, or other sources, refer to the
operating instructions.
Grounding or Polarization - This unit is provided with a
polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power
outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to inserf the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician
to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.
1 ENGLISH
Power-cod Protection. The unit is provided with an
attachment plug with overload protection. This
IS a safety
feature. See operating instructions for replacement or
resetting of protective device. If replacement of the plug is
required, be sure the service technician has used a
replacement plug specified by the manufacturer that has the
same overload protection as the original plug.
CXmrloacting - Do not alk~w anything to rest on the power
cord. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords
because this can result in fire or electric shock. Do not place
the unit in an area where people will walk on the cord.
Qildoor Antenna
Power lines - An outside antenna system should not be
located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other
electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall onto such
power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna
system, extreme care should be taken to avoid touching
power lines or circuits because contact with them may be
fatal.
outdoor Antenna Grounding - [f an outside antenna or
cable system is connected to the unit, be sure the antenna
or cable system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS1/
NFPA No.70, provides information with regard to proper
grounding of the mast anl~ supporting structure, grounding
of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, locatlon of antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for
the grounding electrode. See the figure.

2) If liquid has been spilled into the unit.
3) If the unit has been exposed to rain or water.
4) If the unit does not operate normally when following
the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls
that are covered by the operating instructions because
Improper adjustment of other controls may result in
damage to the unit and will often require extensive
work by a qualified technician to restore the unit to
normal operation.
5) If the unit has been dropped or the cabinet has been
damaged.
6) When the unit exhibits a distinct change in
performance - this indicates a need for service.
Do not attempt to service the unit yourself because opening
or removing covers may expose you to high voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required,
be sure the service technician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer or having the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other
hazards.
Safety Check - After completion of any service or repairs to
the unit, ask the service technician to perform a safety
check to ensure that the unit is in proper operating
condition.
Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s

Preparing the remote control
To prevent damage from leakage or explosion, follow
the descriptions below.
. Insert two supplied R03 (size AAA) batteries with the
0 and O marks correctly as illustrated.
. Do not mix old batteries with new ones or different
types of batteries.
. Do not throw the batteries into a fire, apply heat to
them or take them apart.
. Do not carry the batteries with keys or other metallic
objects.
Remove the batteries when they have no more power, or when
you do not use the remote control for a long period of time.
Point the remote control toward the REMOTE SENSOR.
u
The remote control may not operate when there is any
obstruction between the remote control and the REMOTE
SENSOR.
Strong ambient light sources such as a fluorescent lamp or
direct sunlight may cause unreliable operation.
Using a TV with the same type of infrared remote control
facing the same direction may cause incorrect operation.
. The maximum distance for effective control between the
remote control and the REMOTE SENSOR is 7 meters.
Although you can use the remote control within an angle of
up to 30 degrees in any direction from directly in front of the
REMOTE SENSOR, we recommend a narrower angle for
stable operation.
The remote control can control the CATV converters for the
CATV. To control CATV converters, set the manufacturer’s
code number shown in the table on the next page.

Due to the variety of codes used by manufacturers, AlWA
cannot guarantee that the MBR remote control will operate
with every model of the brands listed.
The number buttons can be used only for channel selection,
but they may not function correctly with some CATV

a short delay before the closed captioned text appears on
the screen.

will least interfere with the picture, usually on the bottom of
